I had, over the years, collected things, small things, as people do, and I had put them all together and showed them in what became a building in the form of the Geometric Mouse.

I'm always careful to say that I changed everything I found.

All the fun is locking horns with impossibilities.

Everything I do is completely original-I made it up when I was a kid.

You can take an object and simply put anything you want in that object, and I accessed that partly through Freudian ideas.

The right angle is one of the world's basic shapes.

The sexual is part of everything, and it's highly formalized. I hadn't done figure for a long time. And I thought to myself, "Why not the erotic figure?"
